The impact of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) on intravenous (IV) drug abusers is only beginning to be assessed. According to the surveillance system of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), over 25 percent of all reported adult and adolescent cases of AIDS in the United States are attributed to IV drug abuse, and the percentage is growing (Centers for Disease Control 1988). However, the effect of AIDS on IV drug abusers has been even greater than indicated by AIDS case data. Many IV drug abusers have died of AIDS-related conditions. AIDS among heterosexual IV drug abusers has been reported in all 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, and is heavily concentrated along the East Coast. For women with AIDS, IV drug abuse is the primary risk factor, accounting for 52 percent of adult and adolescent female cases. Finally, 11 percent of gay AIDS cases also have IV drug abuse as a risk factor. Ethnic groups, overrepresented among IV drug abusers, are also overrepresented among heterosexual IV drug abusers with AIDS. Whereas blacks account for 12 percent of the U.S. population, blacks make up 51 percent of heterosexual IV drug abusers with AIDS. Similarly, while 6 percent of the general population are Hispanic, over 30 percent of the heterosexual IV drug abusers with AIDS are Hispanic. According to reports from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), there are an estimated 1.1 to 1.3 million IV drug abusers in the United States (Centers for Disease Control 1987). Various studies (Lange et al. 1988; Des Jarlais et al. 1988a) report that between 70 percent and nearly 100 percent of IV drug abusers share the use vii of injection equipment, with resulting high risk for contracting and transmitting AIDS. The effects of AIDS are not limited to IV drug abusers, but extend also to their sexual partners and children. About 70 percent of those born in the United States and reported to the CDC as having AIDS attribute their infection to heterosexual contact with an IV drug abuser. About 75 percent of perinatal transmission (from mother to child during pregnancy or childbirth) has been attributed to children of IV-drug-using women or to women who were the sexual partners of IV drug abusers (Chamberland et al. 1987; Oxtoby, personal communication, 1987). Preventing the AIDS epidemic associated with IV drug abuse requires a broad program that includes multiple

DRUG USE SEQUENCING AND KANDEL'S GATEWAY HYPOTHESIS A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Applied Sociology by John Matthew Reid August 2008 Accepted by: Dr. Brenda Vander Mey, Committee Chair Dr. Douglas Kinly Sturkie Dr. Margaret Tina Britz i ABSTRACT This thesis tests the hypothesis by Kandel (1975) that there is a specific sequence of drug use that users follow. Using the same scalogram analysis technique utilized by Kandel in her original Gateway Hypothesis study, a distinct sequence of use was discovered. This thesis is based on the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2005). This study confirmed Kandel’s earlier findings in that this study determined that there is a sequence of drug use. The current study also confirms Kandel’s position that licit drugs precede the use of illicit drugs. This study’s findings differ from those of Kandel, however, in that tobacco and not alcohol was found to be the first drug of experimentation.
